Because I simply love you

Chapter 27: Deja Vu

"Now this is what I call a real treat."

The man was now immensely happy. He had never tasted such classic preparation.

"Child, I'm glad you insisted on this treat. Otherwise, I would have missed out on such great food."

"Thank you, sir. I'm glad you liked it", Nana smiled.

"Liked? I loved it!", he exclaimed.

Nana just slightly raised her brows. His enthusiasm seemed a little familiar.

"And please don't call me sir. Call me uncle. Sir sounds too distant.", He said sulkily.

Her eyes twitched.

Then he widened his eyes as if struck with great thought.

"By any chance...are you single dear?", He suddenly asked.

"..."

Why does this feel like dj vu?

"Sorry?"

"You see, my second son is also single. Although he is younger than you. But I think you two can be a great match for each other. So why don't you try dating?", He happily said.

Is there a repeat telecast of an episode going on?

This whole thing obviously reminded her of Aunt Chen. Those exact same words!

Is this a coincidence?

"U-um actually.."

"Do you mind if he is younger than you? But it's so common nowadays. Men have even married women ten-twelve years older than them."

He thought the only possible reason to reject could be the age. Other than that there is absolutely no problem.

"No no." Nana cried. How should I explain this? God help me!

And He did. Just then the man's phone rang.

He looked at it and cursed. Damn! Couldn't you have called a little later? I'm having a serious discussion with me to be data daughter-in-law! What if I lose the chance? Will you take the responsibility?

But he couldn't ignore it. He had already ignored the previous text. As soon as he picked it up, Nana could hear a loud voice crying and talking.

"Yes yes, I'm coming! I got it! Hmph". And he ended it.

"Sorry child but I have to be somewhere right now. So I have to leave." He sadly said.

"No problem sir- I mean uncle."

"But don't forget to think about my suggestion, okay?"

"I-"

"Okay bye." He left not giving any chance for her to refute.

Seriously, how can there be two people who think and say the same things? She thought after he left.

"Nee-chan! Tadaima [1].", the twins shouted.

"Okaeri [2] Yukito, Yukira. How was school?", Nana asked.

"School was the same as always", the twins were excited, "You tell us. How was the interview? Did you get the contract?"

Once again Nana remembered what happened in Liu Jinhai's office.

No no! Today is a happy day. I cannot think of that now.

She then gave the brightest smile and said, "Yes. We got the contract. They loved all the dishes."

The twins were silent for a second and then shouted in joy.

"Yayyyyyy!!!! We knew it! Our Nee-chan cannot fail.", Yukito said.

"Obviously. There would have been a problem with their taste buds if they hadn't loved it.", Yukira said.

"So, what do you have to do next?"

"Oh yes! Tomorrow I have to go to the venue where Mrs. Liu will also be there. We will be deciding on the menu. I will also check how I can coordinate the venue layout for their seating arrangements. How tables can be set and where the food will be served. I will take a look at everything."

"Okay."

"So much work.", Yukito sighed.

Nana flicked his forehead, "You already know how this works. This time it is on a grand scale. It is the wedding anniversary of Liu's after all."

"Wow. An event of the most elite family. And we got it. So cool."

She shook her head.

---

The day was finally over and Nana finished all her work.

She got back to her room to get a good night's rest but then a thought came in her mind.

I didn't properly thank Chen Jianyu for recommending me. If not for him, I wouldn't have gotten this chance. Well, if I don't consider the hiccup I encountered in Liu Jinhai's office, then apart from it everything else went really well.

She quickly texted him on what.

Nana Hi. Is it good to talk to you for a minute?

Jianyu Hi Nana. Sure. Tell me. And by the way congratulations. I didn't get to properly greet you in his office.

Nana Thank you. And it's actually regarding this only. I also didn't get the chance to properly thank you for recommending me. If you did not trust in my abilities, then it wouldn't have been possible.

Jianyu Oh c'mon. Now you are making me emotional. You only got it because you deserve it. Real talent must never go to waste.

Nana *chuckle* Such a smooth talker.

Jianyu Hey! I'm serious okay.

Nana Okay okay. Thank you for your appreciation.

Jianyu That's much better. Oh and I'm sorry I cannot come with you to the venue tomorrow. I'm stuck in a meeting. Please forgive this humble servant.

Nana Not forgiven.

Jianyu -

Nana Just kidding. It's alright. I will manage.

Jianyu Thanks! I knew you won't mind. But if you still have any doubt, you can call me.

Nana Sure. Oh, it has got so late now. See you later. Good night.

Jianyu See you later. Good night.

She kept her phone aside and closed her eyes.

Alright, Nana! Get ready for tomorrow. It's the first day of your big job.
